Luther Russell - Talking to Myself Lyrics

Sure I was down
When you left me for that clown
Oh my god, don't play dumb
You knew well my deal was done

Yeah, I was a blot
An inconvenient afterthought
I was dead in your head
Yeah, when you untied the knot

Oh well
They were worried bout my health
I was talkin' to myself
There was nobody else
To help me through this hell

Sure, I got by
By staying drunk and getting high
I screwed around, bottomed out
Drowning in my own self-doubt
Every face, they saw right through
And they all looked just like you
I was unmoored in a strange town
Cracking up while draining down

Oh well
They were worried bout my health
I was talkin' to myself
There was nobody else
To help me through this hell

Now I live an age away
Far removed from that cold day
And you're half-way round the world
A new life facing you unfurled
Something's lost, something's gained
And some things are just maintained
Like the scarred-over hole
Buried deep within my soul
